Creates Flowers j HELEN VALODIN. Some people are -born into a profession, some achieve one and'others hive it thrust upon them. Miss Helen Valodln, •‘organdie florist,” is one of the last class, for her business of creating flowers from wisps of sheerest organdie grew from the insistence of her friends. The petite young woman with artistic tastes, nimbly Angers nud a deep-rooted fondness for flowers, from scraps ot silks, velvets or other colorful materials, evolves flowtrs of startling naturalness to finish off a dark frock, tailored suit or perchance to give Just the wanting note of color to a sober little chapeau. And thereby hangs the tale of her enforced vocation. It was by wearing the dainty blossoms that she aroused the admiration of her friends, stirring a desire to become possessors of Just such bouquets. An enchanting frilled bouquet in Dresden colors on her rose-colored organdie frock was the climax to a series of charming effects and all owners of organdie summer frocks, on seeing the Frenehy creation, yearned for just such bouquets to ‘•Parislauise” their respective gowns. They literally fell upon her in a body and insisted upon flowers. PASTIME REACHES BUSINESS STAGE. She made a number of the dainty accessories which, on t'uelr delivery, led to orders for more, much to the amusement of her family, to whom “Helen's organdie garden” was regarded ns merely a pleasing pastime. The fad of wearing navy blue street frock's of voiles and organdies late in the summer brought countless pleas to Miss Yalodin for merry little flowers to odd a wee bit of daring to the conservatism of such costumes, and each week “Helen's garden” blossomed more profusely than before, but was rifled of every bloom with amazing rapidity. "I love flowers,” said Miss Valodln as she sipped tea with a group of friends the other day. "It’s a lot of fun to get a real Cower from my real garden and then try to match its color and character with my materials. Sometimes it Is an impossibility. Poppies are not so difficult. Sometimes I can match them aud fashion them almost perfectly. Sweet peas are almost hopeless, they are so fragile and delicately colored. But my favorites are the roses. One has such possibilities and I believe that they are the general favorites. Everyone wants at least one rose In a bouquet, and a number of people ask for but a single large rose with a softening of dull foliage.” Winter was expected by Miss Valodln to bring a rest, it being the proper time for gardens to remain dormant until spring, and “then who'd want summer flowers when summer frocks are not.” she remarked, but she reckoned without

taking into consideration Dame Fashion's fdlosyncrasies, for with miladl’s winter suit and smart fur choker the autocratic dame decrees she needs must have some incongruous note, some whimsical note of hot summer days. Hence, she has hit upon tbe delicate airy corsage or boutonniere of sheerest oggandle blossoms. So there is no change of seasons for the indoor garden. The snowier the weather the brighter the flowers and the charming grower is forced to beg for mercy from customers to find time to sleep. illrs. Housewife, Do You Know? (Note —Each of these household problems has been worked out by the author, who has not only taken a course in scientific housewifery and dietetics at Columbia University, and written and edited a women's newspaper and magazine for years, bat is a practical housekeeper as well.) 1. Why should vegetables be left uncovered while cooking ? 2. Cnn mutton or lamb fat be mads use of in cooking? 3. What precautions should be taken In washing gold-decorated china or glass? (These questions will be answered tomorrow by the Housewife.) ANSWERS TO YESTERDAY’S QUESTIONS. 1. Pound for pound mutton has a greater amount of tissue making substances and has higher energy value than lamb. 2. To cook cabbage with the least odor cook In acting boiling water no longer than forty minutes, the dish uncovered, the windows open nt the top Snd the house doors of the kitchen closed. 3. To prevent the formation of a ring when using gasoline to clean spots on woolen material, use a little starch to form an absorbent. —Copyright. 1920. LARGEST FLOWER CITY.
